'A model in the making!' Abbey Clancy's little sister Elle, 13, looks set to outshine her sibling with her stunning looks

Her big sister is arguably one of the country's leading models.

So it comes as no surprise that Abbey Clancy's 13-year-old sister Elle is following in her sibling's footsteps.

The effortlessly pretty blonde has the same full lips and cherubic features as her sister, and is fast making a name for herself as one to watch in the modelling industry thanks to a recent shoot for LOVE magazine.

In the accompanying quick-fire interview with the publication, Elle sounds like a typical teenager as she lists 'long hair, Justin Bieber and hanging out with friends' as some of her favourite things.

She also says that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley as one of her favourite models, and adds that she loves nothing more than her 'gorgeous niece Sophia' – Abbey's daughter with husband Peter Crouch.

Abbey has been backing her sister in the industry for the past few months, posting a picture of the teenager on her Twitter page back in August.

The shot shows Elle sitting on the grass, staring into the distance in a photo which highlights her unique look.

While Abbey is more famous for her sexy modelling shots rather than high fashion, she did attempt to break into the more competitive side of the industry when she appeared on Britain's Next Top Model back in 2006.

However, while Abbey made it to the final of the show, she failed to be named the winner of the competition, losing out in the final stage to competitor Lianna Fowler.
